Hi Grant -
I set the epoxy on a piece of shelving over one of those sealed oil-filled electric radiators, with the temp on medium. You can see it on the page where I describe the syringes. I DON'T leave it on all the time, just when I'm preparing to use the epoxy. I store the epoxy indoors at room temperature instead of the garage.
